اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ نُورُ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فِيهِنَّ ،

وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ قَيِّمُ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فِيهِنَّ ،

وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ رَبُّ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فِيهِنَّ ،

وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ لَكَ مُلْكُ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فِيهِنَّ ،

وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ أَنْتَ مَلِكُ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ ،

وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ ، أَنْتَ الْحَقُّ ، وَوَعْدُكَ الْحَقُّ ، وَقَوْلُكَ الْحَقُّ ، وَلِقَاؤُكَ الْحَقُّ ، وَالْجَنَّةُ حَقٌّ ، وَالنَّارُ حَقٌّ ، وَالنَّبِيُّونَ حَقٌّ ، وَمُحَمَّدٌ حَقٌّ ، وَالسَّاعَةُ حَقٌّ ،

اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ ، وَعَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ ، وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ ، وَإِلَيْكَ أَنَبْتُ ، وَبِكَ خَاصَمْتُ ، وَإِلَيْكَ حَاكَمْتُ ،

فَاغْفِرْ لِي مَا قَدَّمْتُ ، وَمَا أَخَّرْتُ ، وَمَا أَسْرَرْتُ ، وَمَا أَعْلَنْتُ

أَنْتَ الْمُقَدِّمُ وَأَنْتَ الْمُؤَخِّرُ ، لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ
Translation
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) would say (as an opening supplication in prayer) when rising from sleep to perform prayers during the night:

O Allah, to You belongs all praise, You are the Light of the heavens and the Earth and all that is within them.

To You belongs all praise, You are the Sustainer of the heavens and the Earth and all that is within them.

To You belongs all praise, You are the Lord of the heavens and the Earth and all that is within them.

To You belongs all praise and the kingdom of the heavens and the Earth and all that is within them.

To You belongs all praise, You are the King of the heavens and the Earth.

And to You belongs all praise. You are The Truth, Your promise is true, your Word is true, and the Day when we will encounter You is true, the Garden of Paradise is true and the Fire is true, and the Prophets are true, Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) is true and the Final Hour is true.

O Allah, unto You I have submitted, and upon You I have relied, and in You I have believed, and to You I have turned in repentance, and over You I have disputed [with others], and to You I have turned for judgment.

So forgive me for what has come to pass of my sins and what will come to pass, and what I have hidden and what I have made public.

You are Al-Muqaddim and Al-Mu-akhkhir. None has the right to be worshipped except You, You are my deity, none has the right to be worshipped except You.

Note: Al-Muqaddim and Al-Mu-akhkhir means that Allah puts forward and favours whom He wills from amongst His creation just as He defers and holds back whom He wills in accordance to His wisdom.

E.g. Favouring man over the rest of creation, favouring the Prophets over the rest of mankind, favouring Muhammad (peace be upon him) over all the Prophets and Messengers…etc.
